CLAIRE GAUDION

Claire Gaudion's charming pannier a cous - traditional Guernsey fishing baskets made out of black maul willow, are handcrafted creations emblematic of a powerful family legacy. As a child, Claire watched her fisherman father weave intricate baskets out of willow, which he used to carry his lunch down to the beach and bring back his catch in. Several years ago, Claire began crafting her own baskets, keeping alive a craft that has been passed down the generations in her family.
